1. Introduction
1.1 General
USB Ethernet adapters give more mobility to laptop and also desktop
computers network connectivity. The OS/2 USB Ethernet support is limited to
adapters based on Kawasaki LSI KL5KUSB101 and LSI KL5KUSB101b chipsets. Most
Base10-T USB network cards use this chipset. This driver will NOT work for network
cards equipped with other chipsets!
If you've got a Software Choice or a Passport Advantage subscription, then
you can download USBETHER.EXE from the OS/2 Warp Device Driver Pak OnLine
website. This USBETHER.EXE device driver package provides you with IBM's most
current support for Universal Serial Bus (USB) Ethernet devices on the OS/2
Ethernet
Device
Driver Support for OS/2 Warp and
eComStation.
The official readme
written by IBM is once again totally
incomplete, so you should consider
this document as a total replacement
for the readme provided by IBM.
